Where does this plug in?

79 Ford F-350 460 C6

In the loom that goes to the distributor, two wires that go to this plug:



The plug is brown, the wires appear to be red/yellow and green (maybe blue)

Thanks in advance!

From the '79 wiring diagram it appears to be the plug for connection #C331, carburetor valve control solenoid (throttle kicker). It also says used only on F-150 w/ 302.
So it appears that in your application (F350 w/ 460) it isn't used. That's why it's not plugged into anything.
It shows the two wires as red/yellow and blue. Circuit #640 is red/yellow, circuit #932 is blue.

Thanks, Mike!

Now I can route that out of the way, and not worry about it.
